DGRAPH in the April 1988 Compute Gazette issue appears to be much more
elaborate and flexible.  
DGRAPH adds commands to the C64 BASIC instruction set for graphics operations. 
A runing BASIC program is needed to use DGRAPH's features.  I don't know how
important it is to access a graphics operation using a sys, peek or a poke.

My recollection of Transactor is that it was a serious magazine with
highly efficient machine language routines frequently presented and
explained. My recollection of those drawing routines is that they were
pretty efficient, but yes, they were rudimentary. I never used them
myself either...
